Looks like this may be the case. The fountain is not going to be turned on at all this year. Pretty dissapointing seeing as it’s a nice place to hang out after class when it gets nicer out. Along with it not being turned on at all this year it will be under construction for the next 2-3 years.

Wondering where the student raised money($46,000) for fountain day is going?
